We have been praying that I would be eligible for financial help through a grant or whatever at the UAB. Sadly,I received bad news, I was denied. Morris,called,and he was told the biggest reason of the denial is that we are not residents of Alabama.. Which has me ????? totally confused,since I was told to apply for the help and they were all completely aware that I lived in Mississippi. So it boggles my mind. So now we are praying for the Lord to guide us in what we now need to do. I'm trying to just continue to pray & not get too upset. I'll admit this is hard, at this very moment. I'm trying not to dwell on it,I know God will get us through all of this. I'm trying to figure out what can we do,then reminding myself.. Have faith God will get us through all of this!
Though I'm praying & trying really hard not to freak out,I have to also admit,I get scared a times. I have to have this procedure done before they surgeon does the surgery! Then I have to have the surgery. It's a little scary if I get to thinking too much,because I've read what can happen if it is left untreated. Let's just say the word FATAL,isn't a very pleasing thing to read (please don't share this info to my family,they don't read my blog) So I humbly ask for each of you to pray,Lots of PRAYERS! The IPSS procedure before the surgery will be around $10,000 (or more),that is not to even mention the surgery,surgeon, hospital stay that will come after this procedure. I've read that is over $100,000.. I do not have any insurance,and needless to say we do not have that kind of money,we really needed to get approved for the financial assistance at the UAB. The nurse had me to apply,due to I had to have that or sign saying I will pay the $10,000 before the procedure.. Which I don't have, it is leaving me sitting here praying & asking, So what they are basically saying is either pay at least $10,000 for the IPSS,then at least $100,000 to be able to get the brain tumor removed or WHAT??? They will not do anything??? It's like they are saying,"Well we are so sorry you have a brain tumor,Good Luck with that!?!?!? "When I read the words if left untreated can be FATAL!! Needless to say that is not a comforting thought.. So please pray some extra prayers for my family & I during this latest storm! Please pray God shows us how to overcome this financial storm. So I can get the treatment I need.
